Last, and this is where the book lost a bit of star points. The on page chemistry between our main characters was fantastic. Not a virgin (although she has been celibate for ten years). He was also sweet and patient with the heroine. I also want to know what happened between John and Sadie (girl.how could you leave me hanging liked that?!! *lol*) Both the main characters were very likable. I kind of hope we see him in a book of his own at some point. There was an interesting cast of secondary characters. That said, we get a few scenes late in the book. As I mentioned above, this one was light in the sex department. There was also basically no angst between the couple. The plot was engaging and the mystery aspect kept me guessing until the end. Do I wish there had been a bit more heat, yes, but it didn't affect my rating in any way. <- I am generally not a fan of super slow burns, but in the context of this particular story I didn't find myself overly bothered by it. However, it was also SUPER SLOW BURN in the sex department. It never bored me nor did I ever feel the need to skim. So the deets.this was a very well-written book. Pretty much every book of hers I have read so far I've loved, and this book was no different. First, she is a complete sweetheart of a person, second she is an incredibility good writer. This author is genuinely one of my favorites. Please note this book is for mature readers due to detailed sexual content, foul language, discussion of abuse, and a killer who will stop at nothing.
